I have returned to Lishui. I really don’t recommend going there in March. I came to a city because of a song.

My dears👫, is there a song that can make you yearn for that city of mountains and rivers😃? It was because of the song "Praise for Lishui", "Beautiful mountains and rivers, natural beauty, the wind of Nanming Mountain, the water of Oujiang River, the charm of Guyan Painting Village, the beauty of clouds and terraces", the melodious lyrics full of Lishui's charm, as if showing the beautiful scenery and unique charm of Lishui one by one, made me resolutely set foot on this land full of surprises in March 🎉, and start a journey full of vitality. Come and take a look at my strategy 💕. Introduction to scenic spots • Guyan Painting Village: Guyan Painting Village is like a poetic ink painting🖼.
